3TODO: maybe support "peerip" verificstion, i.e. getpeername diretcly as 3TODO: inet_aton does not actually deliver ipv6 addresses
4additional peername? 4 - downgrade-or-fail in AnyEvent::Handle::push_write, to
5 diagnose encoding failures earlier and more succinctly.
6 (this works around bugs in perl, throwing away encoding info
7 when passing scalar data to extensions).
8 - add more examples to AnyEvent::Socket manpage.

105.21 Thu Nov 19 02:48:47 CET 2009
11 - fix a problem where socket constants were called with parameters
12 (spotted by David Friedland).
13 - fork_call never use'd POSIX (reported by Daisuke Maki).
14 - improve perl 5.6 compatibility further (but it still won't work
15 unless you rip out everything but the core).
16 - prefer Net::DNS::Resolver over ipconfig, if installed, on win32.
17 uses 10MB of RAM, but doesn't open a console window. *sigh*.
18
195.202 Wed Oct 14 22:35:44 CEST 2009
20 - AnyEvent::DNS would unexpectedly clobber $_ under windows
21 (analysed by Matthias Waldorf).
22 - AnyEvent::Handle::run_cmd can now pass the PID of the
23 newly-created process, which is much less useful than it might
24 sound (based on patch by Yann Kerherve).
25
265.201 Tue Sep 29 12:09:25 CEST 2009
27 - AnyEvent:Handle::on_starttls/on_stoptls methods were broken
28 (reported by Torsten Foertsch).
29 - common::sense 2.0 could cause tcp_server to throw an exception
30 (analysed by elmex).
31
325.2 Mon Sep 14 07:04:49 CEST 2009
33 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: do no longer support register_read_type
34 and register_write_type in AnyEvent::Handle, instead support
35 package names (the facility was mostly abused).
36 - implement "packagename-as-read/write type" support in
37 AnyEvent::Handle.
38 - AnyEvent::Handle: new options "keepalive" and "oobinline".
39 - oobinline set by default to avoid security issues.
40 - the pure-perl event loop backend wrongly detected times() fallback
41 support (spotted by Pavel Boldin).
42
435.12 Tue Sep 1 20:26:50 CEST 2009
44 - be more lenient when parsing resolv.conf files, as some people
45 use hashmarks as comment indicator inside directives (reported
46 by Michael S. Fischer).
47 - use same set of warnings as common::sense 2.0.
48 - fix a potential 32 bit overflow issue due to perl having problems
49 with large hex constants in the Perl backend.
50 - do not use the slower 5.6 version fo the enc_name code in AnyEvent::DNS
51 by default.
52 - fix some prototypes.
53 - (optionally) require Async::Interrupt 1.02.
54 - replace opendns fallbacks by verizon/level3 public dns servers.
55
565.112 Fri Aug 21 13:59:04 CEST 2009
57 - AnyEvent::Handle could cause hard crashes in Net::SSLeay when
58 using starttls with an illegal/uncreatable tls context.
59 - port to broken win32 perls.
60
615.111 Sun Aug 16 18:44:36 CEST 2009
62 - perl errornously requires sockaddr_un structures returned by the
63 kernel to have a specific length. work around this bug by padding
64 sockaddr_un structures (found to fail on OS X, as perl only uses
65 the correct code for GNU/Linux, but likely to fail on other
66 OSes as well).
67
685.11 Wed Aug 12 17:49:37 CEST 2009
69 - fixed a bug in run_cmd with input from filename.
70 - create a json coder object when none is given in write direction
71 to reduce dependency on JSON.
72
735.1 Tue Aug 11 03:17:32 CEST 2009
74 - tcp_connect now reports the correct error in $!, not an unrelated
75 one (was broken since 4.91).
76 - AE::Handle did not properly clear rtimeout/wtimeout watchers
77 when retrying a tcp_connect.
78 - new functions: AnyEvent::Util::run_cmd and close_all_fds_except.
79 - fixed wrong documentation in AE::Socket.
80
815.01 Mon Aug 10 03:16:32 CEST 2009
82 - last release broke EV child watchers :/.
83
845.0 Sun Aug 9 17:32:09 CEST 2009
85 - officially introduce and document the AE API.
86 - lowering the timeout at runtime did not have immediate effect
87 in AnyEvent::Handle.
88 - AE::Handle now has separate and independent read and write timeout
89 settings.
90 - probe for Guard module when AnyEvent::Util is loaded, not at
91 runtime (Event doesn't like eval "use" from callbacks, and it avoids
92 exporting the probe function).
93 - Impl::IOAsync's io watchers did not use the filehandle emulation
94 code to work around it's watcher limits.
95 - work around IO::Async's problems with overloaded objects.
96 - try to disable wearnings inside IO::Async, it's just too buggy.
97 - do no longer use Event by default, only EV or Perl, Event is too buggy.
98 - hackishly provide fast AE:: interface when EV or Perl is the backend.
99 - inherit VERSION from AnyEvent::VERSION in most modules.
100
1014.91 Thu Aug 6 15:42:45 CEST 2009
102 - AE::Handle::starttls could get out of sync when the read buffer
103 already contains some TLS handshake.
104 - AE::Handle did not properly free the TLS session, causing bigger
105 memory leaks in Net::SSLeay than expected (reported by toaster).
106 - AE::Socket::tcp_connect will now artificially delay invoking
107 the callback to avoid returning after invoking the callback.
108 - convert many internal watcher uses to AE API.
109
1104.9 Sat Aug 1 11:07:01 CEST 2009
111 - Glib silently fails when registering a timeout with
112 a negative value, so avoid that.
113 - call condvar callback immediately when it is set
114 after the condition is already signalled.
115 - check rbuf_max condition only after trying to consume
116 data.
117 - normalise signal numbers to names when using the ae's
118 signal handling, but do not document this (yet).
119 - pure perl signal emulation did not properly set nonblocking
120 mode on the signal pipe on win32 (this is unlikely to have caused
121 any issues).
122 - new module: AnyEvent::Debug.
123 - AnyEvent::Strict now checks that a signal was specified
124 by name (not name or number).
125 - reduce memory footprint in typical cases by ~50kb by
126 only compiling signal code when necessary.
127 - add AnyEvent::Handle->rbuf_max.
128 - grab the AE namespace for future new API, implement stubs for
129 said future/alternative API.
130 - new function: AnyEvent::Socket::format_hostport.
131
1324.881 Tue Jul 28 12:51:53 CEST 2009
133 - work around a bug in local in pre-5.10 perls, causing
134 AnyEvent::Handle to recurse when it should not
135 (analysed by elmex).
136
1374.88 Tue Jul 28 04:04:37 CEST 2009
138 - re-bless the handle into a dummy package after calling
139 AnyEvent::Handle::destroy, so the user does not need to check
140 for errors after every push_write etc.
141 - do not attempt to run t/02_signals.t on obviously broken
142 platforms.
143
1444.87 Sun Jul 26 02:06:16 CEST 2009
6 - do not attempt to linger when there is no longer a valid fh. 145 - do not attempt to linger when there is no longer a valid fh.
7 - enforce tls mode to be either accept or connect, do not simply 146 - enforce tls mode to be either accept or connect, do not simply
8 segfault in Net::SSLeay. 147 segfault in Net::SSLeay.
148 - AnyEvent::Handle can now call tcp_connect itself (new parameters
149 connect, on_prepare, on_connect and on_connect_error). Updated
150 tutorial accordingly.
151 - add AnyEvent::Impl::Irssi backend.

11 - since the verbose warning is not enough, explicitly document 154 - since the verbose warning is not enough, explicitly document
12 that versions before 1.33 of Net::SSLeay are not secure. 155 that versions before 1.33 of Net::SSLeay are not secure.
13 - work around signal handling races in Event and (...) Event::Lib. 156 - work around signal handling races in Event and (...) Event::Lib.
14 - try to align signal-race timer to full-second boundaries. 157 - try to align signal-race timer to full-second boundaries.
15 - work around Tk not liking negative timeouts. 158 - work around Tk not liking negative timeouts.
16 - don't complain of different grades of environmental unfriendlyness 159 - don't complain of different grades of environmental unfriendlyness

21 (see $AnyEvent::MAX_SIGNAL_LATENCY). 164 (see $AnyEvent::MAX_SIGNAL_LATENCY).

226 client would first wait for some data by the server and 369 client would first wait for some data by the server and

234 would go missing in a read callback (e.g. due to stoptls) - 377 would go missing in a read callback (e.g. due to stoptls) -
235 Net::SSLeay of course makes no type checking whatsoever. 378 Net::SSLeay of course makes no type checking whatsoever.
